Côte de Brouilly Gamay

Bigger than I expected big strawberry jam ,earthy , spice , tannins - really nice way bigger than I thought

One of the classics. Never a disappointment.

2016 vintage. Great typicity and very aromatic. Lilac, rose petals, blackberry, strawberry, tart cherry, black rocks, incense, graphite. So delicious. Great with a little chill on it.

Flower balance. Big for a Beaujolais but at the same time elegant.

I like the heady, graphite, blueberry jam notes, super light on its feet, good acid and some tannin.

I love this wine- fresh, nice stem character, spice, earth, hint of game, bright blue and red fruits, tons of flavor, clean, more body than you would expect for a Gamay and full of flavor. Wines are always wonderful from Chateau Thivin- one of my favorites.

Santa deserves some of the finest Cru Beaujolais known to humanity.

Really darn yummy.

Still quite dark. Wild aromas of living humus, brambly berries with a ferrous undertone. Still structured but showing a hint of oxidation in the finish.

Just don't understand the love for this wine. Big and powerful for a Beaujolais, but stuck me as a little sour and acidic. A years age has helped it, but I'll wait at least one more before trying again...
